Nelson: Let 'em walk!

The transit dilemma was built into the deal when city hall bought these buses; once again it succumbed to its addiction to needing to be more than it actually is: a smallish town in a pleasant setting. City hall was not forced to buy these buses, but - mesmerized by the Olympic afterglow - it just couldn't help itself!
The devil made me do it!

So nobody did the math then - as prudent precaution - which seems to have been done now - as justifcation. With many Nelsonites - if this comes to pass - severely impacted, in terms of mobility and costs of alternate transportation. Paying big-time for the city's folly.

There's no reason why city hall - if willing - can't undo this motion; the swiftness with which the heron swizzle-stick was walked through council shows what's possible.

The city's sophistry surrounding this matter is immoral!
